Parker woke up with a temp of a little over 100. For a kid that usually runs cool that alone is a signal that something is on it’s way. But 45 minutes after administering Tylenol, Parker’s temp climbed to a whopping 103.3.
All I could think of was the PICU stays we have had where Parker’s sats were circling the drain and we need NO2 just to keep this kid breathing. I’m totally out of practice with just the normal kid virus stuff. With Parker I have gotten into a routine of being on constant Red Alert. Never once did it dawn on me that maybe he just picked up a regular kind of everyday bug.
And I sort of panicked. A little more than just a bit. I’d say about an 8 on the Total Fruit Loop Scale. sigh…….
I dialed Parker’s Pedi one one phone and Reed on my cell. I was sure we would need to bring this kid in. And to make matters even more interesting, Brant had just driven off in the car that the car seat was in.
In my desire to make an embarrassing story less painful, I’ll cut to the details. Parker’s Pedi had me give him some Moltrin and bath. We wound up giving him several baths as Parker emptied his tummy into the sink and all over his nurse quite a few times. But once the Moltrin kicked in Parker’s temp is back down to normal and his tummy is doing better.
And me?
Well, I’m eyeballing that one last nerve pill I keep on hand just in case of an emergency.
And giving lots of prayers of thanks that this wasn’t something more serious.

oh Tammy that isn’t anything to be embarrassed about! Especially with Parker’s history no one would blame you for panicking a little bit…I’m just glad to hear it isn’t anything more serious!
aww I’m sorry you got so freaked out. Can’t say I can blame you. I’m really happy to read that it wasn’t anything more. Hope your little guy is feeling better.
Oh Poor little Parker!!! Sweet little guy
But Tammy, you of course would panic! My goodness! Of course you would think it was something terrible. No need at all to be embarassed about this! Anyone would be worried with that high temp! Poor little guy, he deserves a BREAK from ALL illnesses!!! And so do you!!!
Love and extra hugs for Parky!
Amy
I am so glad Parker wasn’t sicker. I know you so don’t need him to be in the hospital right now. Best of luck tomorrow. I hope you can make it to the MTC and that you have a good supply of kleenexes on hand.:)
I’m thankful to hear that Parker is doing better. I know that panic mode too well, anytime Luke gets a fever I have this sick feeling in my stomach. Will it ever go away??
Be blessed this Christmas,
Sue
Glad to read that mommy has one more nerve pill left. Maybe time for a new prescription 😉 And glad that Parker was just being a normal little boy with a tummy bug. Aaah, normal is good … just not on raw nerves, eh!
Joy, joy that it isn’t serious. Now, give me the doc’s phone number and let me order you a refill!!!
Parker remains in my prayers. I’m praying that you (and our family, too, please) have a healthy Christmas.
Merry Christmas!!
Oh no! I can’t blame you for being so worried. Sorry he gave you such a scare. Never a dull moment, uh?
Far better to be too careful then not careful enough, right?
That little guy! It just never ends with him. Poor thing!
Take care and God Bless!
Hi! Just checking in to see how Parker is feeling today. Poor little guy!! I sure hope no one else gets sick! Love you Parky and I am sending tons of hugs and kisses to you honey. Feel better soon!
Love to all,
Amy
Glad to know someone else ranks an 8 on the total fruit loop scale.
